Yes, that The Weeknd.

Halloween Horror Nights 2022 had insanely creepy haunted houses, and this year’s no different. Cue: the terrifying nightclub at The Weeknd: After Hours Til Dawn Nightmare haunted house. You may dig the singer’s hit tunes, but your party will soon turn into panic as you attempt to escape a maze-like nightmare. We won’t spoil it for you – it’s best to experience it yourself.

You’re just getting started here. Fans of the hit Netflix series All Of Us Are Dead will already know – this year’s affair will feature the zombie-themed K-drama in the form of a haunted house.

For the uninitiated, the premise of the show takes place in a fictional school where an outbreak of a zombie virus happens. You can expect the same for the haunted house, with throngs of zombies attempting to turn you into one of them. Good luck surviving.

Grimm Encounters

Most of us have heard of the Pied Piper of Hamelin fairy tale. Well, you’ll be in for a wicked twist at Grimm Encounters, where the iconic character will lure you into the evil forest with his enchanting melody and hold you hostage. All thoughts and prayers will be with you as you attempt to break free.

The Rebirth of the Matriarch haunted house looks unassuming from the outside. Enjoy it while you can.

Longtime fans of Halloween Horror Nights will remember the Vengeance of the Matriarch haunted house in 2011. This year, the Rebirth of the Matriarch centres around her Peranakan family attempting to bring that very same sinister matriarch back to life with dark magic. Oh, and by butchering unknowing guests like you and me, if we may add.

Jumpscares all around.

Rebirth of the Matriarch

Here’s a hint if you’re a lightweight for all things horror – there’ll be 9 rooms in this haunted house, and each room gets progressively scarier till you finally meet the woman herself.

DIYU Descent into Hell

You’ve survived the first 4 houses, but will you survive DIYU: Descent into Hell? You’ll literally be in hell for this haunted house.

There will be various rooms depicting the different levels of hell, including a labyrinth of mirrors and a chilling ice cave. The boss of hell, King Yama, will be waiting at the end of your journey to present his final judgement on whether you’re worthy of leaving the underworld.

3 frightening scare zones & 2 live shows

Aside from the haunted houses, there are also 3 scare zones at the outdoor areas to check out. No spoilers here, but know that there’ll be hair-raising characters that include a murderous pirate and a genius sci-fi villain.

Much like the previous years, the 2023 edition will have a Scaremony to kickstart the event. This year’s ceremony is themed Judgement Day, in which an unlucky individual attempts to free himself from the retributions of his sins. There’ll also be another live show – The Hacker: Game Over – where an evil genius hacks her way into real life.

Dine in the depths of hell

You’re probably hungry from all that screaming. Good news – you can take a breather at the multi-sensory Die-ning in Hell experience (from $148/pax). It includes a scrumptious 3-course meal with dishes inspired by death and all things spooky that’ll make your skin crawl.
